Rotary Porsche videos

Took a few videos of the car I thought I'd share. Enjoy!

330rwhp from a 13B-T motor in a '75 911 Targa chassis. A great combination.

Thanks Roan!

So are you still in a "retired" state, or back at the game? I'll bet a 600 hp FD is quite a handful!

Thanks - I wanted something unusual and open top I could tinker with every now and then.

It uses the 5-speed Porsche 915 transaxle. Overall the car handles very well, but has a tendency to oversteer on throttle lift because of the rear-mounted engine. Not as noticeable as the factory car, though, since the motor is lighter.
